Code of Conduct for Leaders

Celebrate Recovery leaders serve with humility, integrity, and grace, while also actively participating in their own recovery journey.

Leaders are expected to:

• Continue in their own recovery and personal growth

• Model Christ-like character, honesty, and healthy boundaries

• Uphold Celebrate Recovery principles, guidelines, and confidentiality (Guideline #4)

• Work in unity with local church leadership and the ministry team

• Maintain appropriate, safe, and respectful relationships

• Follow all safeguarding, child safety, and reporting policies

• Encourage accountability and personal responsibility in others

• Seek support and accountability when needed

Leaders serve as peers in recovery—not as counsellors or therapists (unless formally qualified).

Leadership may be reviewed where expectations are not upheld.
